‘Mud’ star Matthew McConaughey's family life is like a ‘circus’

The 'Killer Joe' actor is rushed off his feet at home thanks to his three young children - Levi, four, Vida, three, and three-month-old Livingston - and he sometimes feels he is living inside a circus tent, with his wife Camila Alves cracking the whip as the ringleader.

Speaking on 'The Late Show with David Letterman', Matthew said: "It's wonderful time and I've got a wonderful woman. It's like a circus at home - and she's the ringleader of that circus."

The proud father and can't get over how creative his kids are becoming and thinks Levi's model airport-building obsession and Vida's love of dressing-up could point to future careers for the hyperactive duo.
Matthew said: "Levi, he's gonna be an astronaut or something, he loves building airports all night long in the living room.

"I get home from work around six and in that time, Levi's in the living room building airports, hanging things from the ceiling.

"Vida has gone to her room and in that time it's a fashion show - headbands and angel wings, different shoes ... Livingston's not doing that yet, he's not moving around much!"

However, Matthew admits that adding a third tot to their brood has taken its toll on him and Camila, and they are exhausted.

He joked: "It's true that third is not like you've added 33 per cent more, you've added about 133 per cent more!"
